2021-01-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Introduction</h4> Ranitidine is a member of the H 2 -blocker class of medications, commonly used in the treatment gastroesophageal reflux and peptic ulcer disease. Recent laboratory analyses have demonstrated that ranitidine may yield the probable carcinogen, N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). Here, we characterized the kinetics of NDMA production from ranitidine under various simulated gastric conditions. Moreove...
